Manwaring tips Paradis for Red Ryan title

Staff report

Rainy weather resulted in a shortened final day of action at the annual Red Ryan CYO Golf Tournament at Derryfield Country Club Friday.

The Intermediate Division championship went to Keene’s Tim Manwaring, who defeated Hooksett’s Matthew Paradis, 1-up. The Junior Division championship went to Dover’s Eric Evans (over Roman Ojala in 11 holes) and the Mite Division was won by Mont Vernon’s Phillip Schmitz (4 and 2 over Nicholas Edgeworth).

.Tournament director Doug Smith opted to cut Friday’s match play down to nine holes since the weather forecast was not promising.

“We made the decision on the forecast we saw to try and get it done because we didn’t have another alternative for rescheduling it,” Smith said. “It wasn’t ideal, but we thought at least everyone got to play today. We thought if we postponed it to next week, kids might not be able to come back.”..Manwaring was also named Colin MacDonald Outstanding Golfer Award winner. Evans claimed the Tony Haley Rookie if the Year Award. Schmitz became the first repeat winner in the Mite Division, which was created in 2005...In the Intermediate ranks, Paradis defeated Bedford’s Roger Larrivee 1-up in the semifinals and Manwaring knocked off Patrick McGinley of Bedford, 3 and 2 to set up the final round.
